IC Insights: CMOS Sensor Market to Grow by Only 7% in 2021

IC Insights is disappointed by the slow CMOS sensor market growth this year:

"The total optoelectronics market is expected to be held back by sales growth of just 7% in CMOS image sensors this year.  CMOS image sensor leader Sony blames softer growth conditions in 2021 on trade frictions between the U.S. and China and a “deterioration of product mix.”  CMOS image sensor sales have also been impacted by market fluctuations in some end-use applications, and shortages of ICs and other components used in digital-imaging systems."
